Wilma Jakobsen

Can salvation that is only personal and spiritual be meaningful for those who are poor, hungry, oppressed and live on the margins of society? Wilma Jakobsen, together with Francisco Garcia, Episcopal priest in Los Angeles, and Edwin Arrison, Anglican priest in South Africa, (both via video presentations), explore different types of liberation theology, from its origin in Latin America, to Black and African and feminist liberation theologies, and their importance for the world today.
